Topic: Couldn't find any other forum so ask this, so i ask here

Does anyone still play the Galactic Conquest mod for bf1942. I love First Strike, don't get me wrong. But the space battles in GC where a bit better for me. running around on ships etc and I loved the level Judicator. I hardly find players on the server anymore, sometimes 1-2 players. Same counts for First Strike though, hard to find a populated server. Going to try right now for 1st Stike and later this night. Hopefully I see you guys.

Yes, GC was great fun.  But after playing FS for a while now, it's hard to go back.  Especially when you watch clips from the two side by side.

You can find the same frenetic action of Judicator on certain maps in FS.  But yes Judicator was a huge map with multiple levels and directions to advance.  Quite impressive in scope considering the engine it was designed on.

I'm thinking we will be pleasantly surprised with the next release, so I'm really looking forward to it.

U.S. players should be a little more plentiful then too, so I'm hoping to see people playing when I'm NOT at work for a change. big_smile

Re: Couldn't find any other forum so ask this, so i ask here

It was indeed an extremely impressive mod,
I am sure there is some kind of opening in BF2142's engine that will allow such things.

Like......makig a star destroyer a titan.
But then is there the limitation of 2 titans per map, or is there?

The problem is SD's are huge and if there would be titans made out of them, everything would need to be scaled down so it could fit.

Re: Couldn't find any other forum so ask this, so i ask here

The main issue is the fact FS wants to stay lore accurate, or, when we make up our own battles, at least have them so they would *fit in* with lore.

There is no real event in Star Wars battles that involved 2 teams duking it out, both boarding each others ships: either from the ground or in space.  Because of the fact no one has really found a situation, no development has been made on an "FS Titan".

However, as much as I love the lore accuracy of this mod, I'd also love something like that old GC map, with the boarding.  Just for the reason it would be a fun and exciting map, both for space jockeys and ground lovers.

Re: Couldn't find any other forum so ask this, so i ask here

There are boarding maps in various levels of development, but they are currently taking a back seat to the current workload, that being Jundland and Hoth. Hopefully we'll be able to work on these again in the future as they would certainly would add a nice new and interesting dynamic to what we currently have in the map list.
